According to India Today, gangsters Goldy Brar and Rohit Godara, connected with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, stated in their social media posts that they were responsible for the blasts.

Police reported that two individuals on a motorcycle threw the explosive devices outside the De’orra Restaurant and Sevillee Bar & Lounge, located about 30 meters apart. The blasts shattered window panes and caused slight structural damage to both establishments, with a nearby club also suffering minor damage.
Chandigarh Police rushed to the scene after receiving reports of the explosions and launched an investigation. The bomb detection squad and forensic experts were called in to collect evidence. Preliminary findings suggest the use of a homemade bomb, but police are yet to confirm the exact nature of the device.
The blasts have raised concerns about safety in the area, particularly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi scheduled to visit Chandigarh on December 3.
Goldy Brar, a known member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, had previously claimed responsibility for the killing of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala in May 2022. He was declared a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act earlier this year. Authorities are continuing their investigation into the blasts to identify the culprits and determine their motives.
